Als Hubschrauberpilot fliegen Sie oft nahe an Gelände mit eingeschränkter vertikaler Manövrierbarkeit. Zusätzlich ist oft die Sicht eingeschränkt und Sie teilen sich den Luftraum mit anderen Flugzeugen, die in der gleichen Situation sind. Hindernisse können ebenfalls ein Problem darstellen und leicht einen ansonsten erfolgreichen Flug verderben.
PowerFLARM kann Sie nicht nur vor anderen Flugzeugen, die mit FLARM ausgerüstet sind, warnen, sondern auch vor Flugzeugen, die mit Transponder und ADS-B ausgerüstet sind. Außerdem informiert Sie das optionale Hinderniswarnsystem vor Hindernissen, die nicht ausreichend sichtbar sind.
Für den Drehflüglermarkt stehen folgende FLARM-Geräte zur Verfügung:
FLARM systems and devices are available from many different manufacturers. Some manufacturers specialize in devices for specific aircraft types. Devices without a built-in display must be connected to a FLARM Compatible display as a primary means of collision avoidance, and can in addition be connected to a secondary display for e.g. traffic awareness.
PowerFLARM Fusion
PowerFLARM Fusion combines the robust and proven PowerFLARM technology with the easiest and most comprehensive configuration and maintenance interface on the market. Introducing FLARM Hub — a web app that runs on the device and works with any smartphone, tablet, or desktop computer — configuring your FLARM has just become super easy.
FLARM Hub can be used for firmware and obstacle database updates. IGC files can be downloaded directly to the computer or mobile device. Additionally, FLARM Hub has a traffic display, a bi-directional data port, and built-in tools for range analysis as well as diagnostics & support.
Furthermore, PowerFLARM Fusion has a range of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection options and can connect to major navigation apps directly such as Air Navigation Pro, SkyDemon, ForeFlight, EasyVFR, iPilot, and XC Soar. In addition to the standard FLARM data port protocol (ICD), PowerFLARM Fusion also supports the GDL 90 protocol used by many EFBs and navigation apps.
PowerFLARM Core ADS-B
PowerFLARM Core is at the center of the FLARM ecosystem and is the most widely used FLARM system in General Aviation. With tripled detection range and antenna diversity, it enables a timely detection of fast moving aircraft. In addition, improved obstacle warnings are more intuitive with dynamic forecasted trajectories.
The PowerFLARM Core ADS-B model has an integrated 1090 MHz receiver (ADS-B and transponder) to ensure that all aircraft can be detected. This is the recommended and most common model for all aircraft.
PowerFLARM Core is approved by EASA for installation in certified aircraft. An AML-based EASA Minor Change is available.
PowerFLARM Core Pure
PowerFLARM Core is at the center of the FLARM ecosystem and is the most widely used FLARM system in General Aviation. With tripled detection range and antenna diversity, it enables a timely detection of fast moving aircraft. In addition, improved obstacle warnings are more intuitive with dynamic forecasted trajectories.
PowerFLARM Core exists in two models: Pure and ADS-B. The ADS-B model also has an integrated 1090 MHz receiver (ADS-B and transponder) to ensure that all aircraft can be detected. This is the recommended and most common model for all aircraft.
PowerFLARM Core is approved by EASA for installation in certified aircraft. An AML-based EASA Minor Change is available.
PowerFLARM Portable ADS-B
PowerFLARM Portable integrates the well-proven PowerFLARM technology with an LCD display in a solid and portable box. This is the go-to solution for pilots who fly different aircraft that do not already have FLARM installed.
The PowerFLARM Portable comes with an integrated 1090 MHz receiver (ADS-B and transponder) as standard. It can run on batteries or external power. It is a portable device (PED), normally placed on the glareshield, and can be used on any aircraft without a heated windshield.

Classic FLARM F4-F9
The old Classic FLARM devices were introduced more than 15 years ago and have now been deprecated for several years. Some of them are however still used mostly in gliders and they are fully interoperable with more modern FLARM devices. Users of these old devices are advised to upgrade to PowerFLARM, with tripled detection range, antenna diversity, better interference protection, transponder and ADS-B receiver and more intuitive obstacle warnings.
